Update
Fishing Event, Bootfish Bill, Web Store
The fishing event is the main course: a custom pond at spawn with seven rare event fish (10% Blue Bat Star down to 0.016% Nemo), a virtual /fish balance so the catches don't clog your inventory, and AFK fishing that kicks in after 60 seconds of stillness. Bootfish Bill trades event fish for a Super Rod, Sculk Ascendant Shards, Mysterious Coins, Event Keys, Pinata Shards, and a long list of vanilla rewards (with daily and weekly caps that reset 7 PM Central). The Super Rod is a 10% legendary drop from the Event Crate. Weekly quests join the daily lineup with a $500 buy-in and Saturday 7 PM Central reset. The web store is also live with Stripe - every purchase broadcasts server-wide and delivers cleanly. Store got a visual refresh with crate art and a Most Popular card showing the $14.99 → $11.99/mo Ordea+ discount. Plus auction house enchant rendering, category filters, Holiday Crate renamed to Event Crate, and /fw fireworks and /pet companions for Ordea+

Fishing Event
- New fishing pond at spawn with a custom event zone. Walk in to see the boss bar 'Fishing Zone (Event)' and a pinned tip explaining AFK fishing
- Cast any rod inside the zone to fish normally. Every catch rolls on top of the vanilla loot table: 78.79% your normal catch, 10% Blue Bat Star, 6% Spotted Barbel, 2.5% White Squid, 1.6% Black Marlin, 1% Sea Bunny, 0.04% Tripod Fish, 0.016% Nemo (legendary)
- Event fish are virtual currency - they don't take up inventory space. Catch one, see it fly out of the water and 'absorb' with a particle burst and sound. /fish opens a 27-slot read-only menu showing your balance per fish, with the catch chance colour-coded to each fish's rarity
- AFK auto-fishing: 60 seconds of stillness in the zone flips you into AFK fishing mode (action bar confirms it). Bites then auto-reel and the rod auto-recasts on its own, so Lure and Luck of the Sea still behave normally. Rods stay in the water indefinitely. 60-second cooldown between auto-catches
- Items pulled out of the water are tagged to the fisher so only that player can pick them up while inside spawn
- All catches count toward Minecraft's fishing stat and the Fisher quest. Rapid bursts (Tunnel Bore breaking 9 blocks, Veinminer chains, Super Rod double catches) now show one consolidated '+9' instead of nine separate '+1' spams
Bootfish Bill (Trader NPC)
- New trader at the fishing pond. Right-click to open his menu - villager-style merchant UI titled 'Bootfish Bill'
- Event fish stay in your virtual balance until you open Bill's menu. He temporarily hands them out as items so the merchant can take them, then puts whatever survived back in your balance when you close the menu
- Apex trade: 1 Nemo for a Super Rod. 1 Nemo for 30 Sculk Ascendant Shards (one trade per week)
- Tripod Fish: 2 Mysterious Coins for 1 Tripod (one per day). 5 Event Keys for 1 Tripod (10 per week)
- Sea Bunny: 1 Event Key for 1 Sea Bunny (30 per week). 1 Heart of the Sea for 1 Sea Bunny. 16 Enchanted Apples for 1 Sea Bunny
- Black Marlin: 8 Pinata Shards for 12 Marlin (15 per week). Ominous Trial Key for 6 Marlin (10 per day). Prismarine Shard for 1 Marlin
- Mid-tier: Sponge for 6 White Squid, 2 Nautilus Shells for 1 White Squid, Trial Key for 6 Spotted Barbel (20 per day), 4 Emeralds for 2 Barbel, 4 Diamonds for 4 Blue Bat Star
- Vanilla fish: 5 Iron for 5 Pufferfish, 10 Iron for 5 Tropical Fish, 15 Iron for 5 Salmon, 20 Iron for 5 Cod
- Daily caps reset at 7 PM Central. Weekly caps reset Saturday 7 PM Central (matches the weekly quest reset)
Super Rod
- Super Rod: 10% legendary drop from the Event Crate. Luck of the Sea IV, Lure IV, Unbreaking III, Mending, plus a custom enchant 'Double Float'
- Double Float rolls the vanilla fishing loot table a second time on every catch. Bonus is a fresh independent roll biased by Luck of the Sea. Costs 2 durability per cast (mitigated by Unbreaking)
- Super Rod counts Double Float as a second fish caught - +2 toward your fishing stat and quest progress per cast
- Inside the event zone the bonus catch is also eligible for the event-fish upgrade roll - your Double Float can land a Nemo too
- Custom textures with cast / uncast variants. Without the resource pack you see a plain vanilla fishing rod with the same enchants
Weekly Quests
- Six weekly quests visible from the Quest NPC alongside the daily lineup: Monster Slayer (8 mob types), The Grand Harvest (4 crops), Trail of Twelve (12 biomes), Ore Surge (9 ore types), Apex Hunt (Withers / Ender Dragons / Warden), Protector's Oath (raid rescues + raid-mob kills + level-5 raid)
- Free this week - the buy-in cost is temporarily set to $0 and the quest is auto-rolled when you open the Quest NPC. Up to 5 rerolls at $1000 each if you want a different one, max one turn-in per week
- Resets every Saturday at 7 PM Central. If you have an active uncompleted quest, your progress carries into the next week - you only lose the turn-in flag
- Rewards: $1000 + 5 Sculk Ascendant Shards (Apex Hunt is $1200 + 6 shards)
- Progress is event-driven (kill / mine / harvest / biome visit / raid finish). Action-bar updates show the current quest name and how many sub-objectives are complete - no scoreboard clutter
- Accept and reroll happen at the Quest NPC only. /weekly is for status, list, and turn-in
Quality of Life
- Cross-world /rtp confirm: running /rtp from anywhere other than the overworld or spawn now opens a confirmation menu before sending you. Prevents accidental dimension swaps
- Rod-pull protection: fishing rod hooks can no longer pull players, mobs, or animals around in spawn world. The same protection covers any claim you don't have permission in
- Custom NPC merchant menus now show the NPC's name (Sculktide, Echogrim, Egg Trader, Piñata Trader, Vøkäi, Bootfish Bill) instead of vanilla profession titles like 'Weaponsmith - Master'
- New Weekly Quest Champion tile on the Statistics page - top player by lifetime weekly-quest turn-ins, alongside the existing daily Quest Champion tile
- Spawn world water flows again at the new fishing pond cascade while the rest of spawn stays frozen
Web Store is Live
- Stripe payments are wired up end to end. You can buy ranks, the Ordea+ subscription, and Ultimate Keys directly from ordea.us/store with card or bank. Receipts get emailed automatically and there's a Purchase History button at the top of the store page so you can pull them up anytime
- Ordea+ subscribers get an Ordea+ Key when they subscribe and another every 15 days while the subscription stays active. Donor is a $19.99 one-time unlock. Ordea+ is $11.99/month
- Event Keys (renamed from Holiday Keys) and Spawner Keys are in-game only - earned from voting, seasonal events, and in-game rewards. They are not sold on the web store
- Ultimate Key is $4.99 each, capped at 30 per Discord account per week so resellers can't farm them at scale
- Browsing the store is fully open - the login, account-link, and TOS gates only fire when you click Buy, so you can read what each rank includes without an account
Auction House Got Better
- Enchanted books finally show their actual enchantments instead of just saying "Enchanted Book"
- New category chips up top: All / Weapons / Tools / Armor / Books / Blocks / Misc with live counts per category. One-click filtering by item type instead of typing in the search
- Compact rows and a wider page so you can see roughly 50% more listings without scrolling
Holiday Crate is now Event Crate
- The Holiday Crate, Holiday Keys, and the in-game NPC shop entry have all been renamed to Event Crate / Event Keys / Event Key. Same crate, same loot pool, just a more accurate name now that we're using it for any seasonal or themed event - not just winter holidays
- Existing keys in your inventory and balance carry over without any action needed
Discord Improvements
- The Piñata 5-minute-warning embed in Discord now has a Toggle alerts button. Tap it to opt in to the role pings, tap again to opt out. Works the same as running /pinataalerts in-game - either path flips the same role
- Voice-channel player count updates reliably now. It was hitting Discord's rename rate limit and getting stuck on stale numbers
New Cosmetic Commands for Ordea+
- /fw - Spawn a cosmetic firework wherever you're standing. Type just /fw for a random one, or pick a colour and shape: /fw blue burst, /fw red star, /fw lime creeper. 5-second cooldown
- /pet - Summon a cosmetic pet companion that follows you around. 14 pet types available: cat, wolf, fox, parrot, axolotl, bee, allay, frog, ocelot, panda, rabbit, chicken, turtle, bat. /pet remove to dismiss. Pets are invulnerable, won't wander off, and disappear when you log out
- Both commands are Ordea+ exclusive - non-subscribers get a polite redirect to the store
Cleaner Purchase Experience In-Game
- When someone subscribes to Ordea+ or buys a Donor rank or Ultimate Key, everyone online gets a broadcast: '[Store] <Player> just subscribed to / purchased <thing> - thanks for supporting Ordea!' Plays a satisfying level-up sound for everyone too
- The buyer gets their own clean delivery message plus a click-to-open link to submit a ticket if anything's wrong with their purchase
- All deliveries now go through a single internal command so the messaging stays consistent across every product type
Fisher Quest Counts Offhand Catches
- Catching fish with the rod in your offhand now counts toward the Fisher quest
Trash Pool Shows Who Threw Items In
- Hovering an item in /trash shows a Trashed by <name> line above the existing TTL
- Items from before this change show Trashed by Unknown
Items No Longer Despawn So Fast
- Sugar cane, kelp, leaves, sand, gravel, dirt, cobblestone, and other junk drops no longer disappear after 15 seconds
- Base item despawn timer raised from 5 minutes to 20 minutes - death drops, tree chops, and farm rows last long enough to walk back
Holding Server MOTD Redesign
- Server list shows Restarting clearly during restarts so it does not look like the server is up
Sculktide Trade List Reset
- 6 new trades, all priced in Sculk Ascendant Shards
- 1 shard for 6 Totems of Undying
- 4 shards for 3 Wither Skulls
- 8 shards for 2 Nether Stars
- 12 shards for a Rib Armor Trim Smithing Template
- 18 shards for 5 Premium Crate Keys (granted to your /keys virtual balance, not as physical items)
- 50 shards for an Elytra
Crate Reroll
- Vote Crate, Ordea+ Crate, and Ultimate Crate all got refreshed loot pools and updated drop %s. New tiers and items are wired into the existing crate system - no new commands needed
- Vote Crate: XP Bottles, Iron Blocks, Ender Pearls, Ominous Bottles III/V, Diamonds x16, Confetti Shard, Mending Book, Nether Star, and an Event Key at the top of the legendary tier
- Ordea+ Crate: Confetti Shards x64, Tunnel Bore Book, Heavy Core, Premium Crate Key, Allay Spawn Egg, Elytra, and a 0.33% Soulbound Book in the new Mythic tier
- Ultimate Crate: full Netherite armour and tool set in Legendary, plus a Mythic tier featuring Sculk Ascendant Shards (x8 and x28), Elytra, and the Soulbound Book
- Spawner Crate: same drop pool, but every reward tile in the preview now shows the mob spawner block icon for visual consistency
